The Lord Joestar sees arriving in his house the young person Dio Brando, the son of man whom he believes to have saved to him the life. Recognizing, it decides to adopt it after the death of his father, but the young man proves quite ambitious and is only to only seize fortune of Joestar. Very quickly in competition with the son of the Lord, so old Jonathan, him of a dozen years. Noble and naturally good, it accommodates it with kindness. But Dio will make very to harm and to him humiliate it in order to destroy it psychologically and manage to achieve its goal. Indicator that proves to be vain and overcome by its strength of character, it leaves him a respite of several years. All two from now on at the university, it would almost seem to be brothers completely plain. But in spite of the news good intentions of Dio, the doubt persists. Until Jonathan discovers that Dio made a parricide and tries from now on to also poison his/her own father. And when mysterious an old mask of Aztec stone containing of strange capacities appears their latent competition takes dramatic and supernatural proportions.

Driven back and about to find itself delivered to the police force, Dio is found obliged to use this strange artefact. Using the blood of Lord Joestar, it gives up his humanity and becomes a monster with the superhuman capacity, fearing light of day and watering human blood: a vampire! Taken of a fatal frenzy it decimates the unhappy police officers present before still attacks our hero under the shock of died of his father. It will have to reveal unsuspected resources in order to demolish the demon which will perish in the fire of the manor. At least he believes it…

Helped of his new Speedwagon companion and his Zeppeli Master, it finally prepares to demolish the legions of zombies sent by his former adoptive brother to exterminate it.

The combat which opposes them will reach its paroxysm opposing the noblest side of human to its most contemptible aspect.

Which line of Joestar or Brando will carry it finally?

Pulp environment and victorienne for this first part which although graphically rather coarse proves particularly refreshing and completely far away from the usual reference marks of the kind.
